Quakeworld.TV available
To ease the workload on our brains a bit i have now registered www.quakeworld.tv and forwarded it to the QTV website which is located on the fairly tricky address http://qw.suomicom.fi:28000/nowplaying/. Enjoy!

And I thought getting quakeworld.nu better search engine ranking. Would be more reasonable to use something like tv.quakeworld.nu or quakeworld.nu/tv for that.
Also, why not make it properly "point" to the server so people keep www.quakeworld.tv in the address bar?


Sorry.

I just wanted something that's easy to remember, and intuitive.

It doesn't properly point because i'm lost with DNS stuff.

feature request: i'd like to see the /qtvplay url (eg. 35@qw.suomicom.fi:28000) listed at the site next to the regular ip. thx

Not quite correct place to ask for feature requests, qw-dev.net is for that.

However, you can see the SID from the QTV page when pointing the "watch now" button and if your browser actually has status bar/address bar enabled. For example:

http://qw.suomicom.fi:28000/watch.qtv?sid=35

-> SID = 35 -> like you described.

Hm, a "proper" point doesn't seem possible as long as the port is included in the address i want to make an alias to. Or maybe i'm doing something wrong...

This is a great thing, no need google for the qtv anymore(+qtv +suomicom). Cool to see people still making things easier. Everyone could have googled earlier but this is way it's more easy.

How about typing /topic #qtv on Quakenet? You don't even have to be on the channel to do this (#qtv is not private/secret channel that could prevent this).

Didn't even know qtv had a channel but nice tip thanks.

perhaps you don't have irc and you still want to be able to find the website quickly.

this is gj! i didn't even realize "qw.suomicom.fi:28000" was a permament thing, i thought it was only used for competitions.
